That's part of the beauty of using a beater... I'm sure they still have mechanical work to worry about, but I'd imagine they aren't too concerned about a lot of the body damage lol.

On my parents farm, we dug a 1/2 acre pond. We stocked it with Bass, Bluegill & Sunfish that we caught elsewhere. It became over stocked after a while. We were catching fish without baiting the hook, pulling them out and feeding them to the farm cats.

Yea we have a couple 1/2 acre ponds at my parents that were sort of the same scenario. The summer droughts took care of that problem though I doubt we have any fish left. Oh well my brother is building a much larger pond on his new property but it probably won't get finished before I'm 30.

Pond management is a freaking science, this is our 2nd go around, the first time we "over stocked" plus we didn’t harvest enough fish so it became over populated...every once in a while you would catch a 5-8lb bass but most of them were 2-3lbs and skinny as hell. needless to say we drained it over the winter and it is just now filling up. when I get home I will attach a few photos

Our pond is spring feed. The problem we have is too much water (it is in Michigan after all). It was a piece of land that the tractors would always get stuck in. What else can you do but dig a pond?
